This is a jungle level i made that was going to be for a contest on my forum. But since the forum is closed now and it closed before
the actual deadline, i decided to post the level here. Basically the level has a WIDE enemy variety and the level is
around 10 to 20 minutes long. So enjoy!

Protip: Make your levels shorter in the future. Nobody wants to sit through 20 minutes of gameplay unless at least 4 midpoints are provided.

But when it comes to SMBX being you is the worst thing that can happen.

Don't listen to mechdragon, enjl's right, don't make 20 min. Long levels

Okay, listen up.
There's this weird little thing called "Having an opinion."
Keep in mind that people won't always agree with you. There are some out there who enjoy 20 min. long levels, and just because you don't like 'em, doesn't mean they're bad. I'm genuinely impressed when someone manages to keep a level interesting for 20 minutes.

Next time make a 5 minute level and see how it gets a score 2 points higher

REVIEW OF WATERFALL JUNGLE BY SUPERMARIO12345

TOO LONG
This level is too long and because of the length it gets really uninteresting and boring as you just keep seeing basic platforming and enemies so the gameplay doesn't get different and it's just 15 minutes of being bored. The little detour keys don't really help the length or the fact that it's uninteresting, they just feel tacked on.

GAMEPLAY
Aside from getting boring quickly because you didn't put enough interesting variety into the gameplay, It's good. There is also a part with 2 trouters that is basically impossible if it was done correctly, but you can stand on them when they're under the screen. Also the first key is in a separate section which is not a problem but at the end of the section there is 2 chasing koopas (which i mean, is a bit overkill).

SCORE:
5/10
Your level design is definitely getting

I guess the review was okay, but i actually DID take into account that this level could be too long so i was trying to make not
too long.

It a lot harder to make a genuinely good level that's 20 minutes long.
